(SAN JOSE, CA) -- Multiple award-winning BBW adult star and sexual figurehead for chubby Asian girls everywhere, Kelly Shibari, will lead seminars in California next week in anticipation of the pop culture holiday, "Steak & BJ Day." Kelly will be appearing at Curvy Girl in San Jose on Monday, March 10, and the Riv in Santa Barbara on Wednesday, March 12.

"'Steak & BJ Day’ has been around for almost 20 years now, on all sorts of pop culture media sites – I first heard about it during college," says Kelly. "Though I’m usually asked to speak on panels and with college classes on topics that are a little more serious, this is an awesome, totally non-serious holiday I thoroughly enjoy celebrating! The workshop will be held in the same irreverent, lighthearted manner – it’ll be fun, laid back, and with a whole lot of humor. I’m looking forward to chatting with all who attend, and hope that March 14 will be a sexy holiday for everyone around the world!"

"You know the drill," says the Official Steak and Blowjob Day website, one of several "official" sites commemorating the holiday. "Every 14 of February, men get the chance to display their fondness for a significant other by showering them with gifts, flowers, dinner, and many other romantic baubles. They rack their brains for that one special gift that will show their spouse that they truly care. Simple, effective and self-explanatory, [Steak & BJ Day was] created so that the ladies can show their man how much they truly care for him. No cards, no flowers, no special nights on the town, the name explains it all: just a steak and a BJ. That’s it."

The workshop, much like the concept behind the holiday, focuses on the two main aspects of the day: steaks and blowjobs. The first half of the class will discuss different cuts of meat, cooking temperatures and methods, and wine/beer pairings. The second half will cover basic and advanced oral sex techniques. The workshop concludes with an open Q&a session, after which Kelly will be available for photos, autographs, and to meet with attendees.

Kelly will speak at 7pm on Monday, March 10 at Curvy Girl, 1535-30 Meridian Ave, San Jose, CA; tickets may be purchased here. On Wednesday, March 12 at 6:30pm, she will present at the Riv, 4135 State St, Santa Barbara, CA; tickets may be purchased here. Tickets will also be available at the door at both locations.

All attendees will be entered into a raffle to win a variety of prizes depending on which store they visit, from a steakhouse gift certificate and novelty gift basket at the Riv, to a prize basket at Curvy Girl Lingerie, which includes wine, Shibari Wands, and more. There will also be in-store discounts available for all attendees.

"I think the sign of a great lover is someone who is always looking to learn new things for their bedroom, and this workshop sounds like it’s going to be a blast!" says Curvy Girl owner Chrystal Bougon. "My customers and I are excited to have Kelly visit; it’s definitely going to be a lot of fun."
